The day before Thanksgiving and a happy band of divers set off for a Wednesday of Adventure! Allison began her DSD day learning a bit at the IDH shop before entering the pool for a quick skill session… which she ACED! then we met Peter, Charles, Unmesh, Prabha, Melissa, Jason and Gil back at the shop to board the Sea Fox. Our first destination… Koko Crater. We tied up and all divers entered the water safely and descended using the lines. We started our tour at Back Crater, crossed over to Big Buddha, and were met by a host of turtles.

They were very active and friendly, swimming in , through, and around the divers who did their best to stay out of their way. As we made our way to Little Buddha we came across an Eel laying under the crater lip…

Next stop was Anglers reef. Squirrel fish, Butterflys, Sergeants, Triggers, Eels, and a variety of other fish hurried about the reef. All in all a great day of diving was had by all. Thank you to all our divers for a safe and fun day of diving! HAPPY THANKSGIVING!
